Chinatown Express

A moment of true nostalgia. As a Boston native, one thing I will forever love is the food, especially the Chinese Food! Chinatown Express is one of my favorite on the go restaurants. I’ve been coming here since 2002 and though I moved out of Boston in 2005, I make sure to come get an order everytime I’m in town. Good food, good portions, and most of all, GREAT Combination plates. My go combo is the D11. Chicken Fingers, Boneless Spareribs, Beef Teriyaki, and Pork Fried Rice. This combination is a perfect balance of pork, beef, and chicken. The ribs are meaty and have a perfect sweet to salt balance. The beef teriyaki is well done and pairs well with the pork fried rice. The highlight for me is the moist, meaty chicken fingers. The meat is seasoned as well as the batter is too. The pork fried rice brings everything together as I take a scoop of rice with every bite of meat. LoL!!!! Now, if you know what’s good for you, make sure to get the Duck Sauce. One thing about the Chinese food in Boston is the Duck Sauce. It’s sweet and provides an added flavor profile to everything on the plate. Also, regardless of what you order, the duck sauce will always make it taste even better. LoL!!! If you're in the area you’ve gotta stop in and get some food from Chinatown Express. The menu has a variety of options. The lunch and dinner specials are awesome. The service is good. And the food is fresh. 20 years later and they still haven’t lost the quality goodness that I enjoy!

On an urge, got Chinese for Valentine's Day which fell on Sunday and had the delight of my life! Food was well cooked and delicious. I say this because they were uber busy.. Took three trys to get though by phone and still had to wait an extra mins when I got there. Well worth the wait! Every thing was tasty. juicy things were juicy, fried things were crispy. Place is local and I go there often but they out did themselves. Sorry, no pictures. We ate it all!
